The '''Bruennhilde''' is an artillery tow vehicle used by units of the [[Imperial Guard]], mostly poorly-equipped formations such as [[Regiment#Siege Regiment|siege regiments]]. {{Fn|1}} A variant of the ubiquitous [[Land Crawler]], the Bruennhilde predates the [[KriegCivil War]] civil war and was used as a lightly armoured transporter by [[PDF]] units of [[Krieg ]] for several millennia. Although it is armed with a single [[Heavy Stubber]], the Bruennhilde is not a front-line combat vehicle, though it can be pressed into that role as needed.{{Fn|1}} ==Trivia=={{Trivia}}*This pattern of vehicle is named for [[Wikipedia:Brunhild|Brunhilde]], a valkyrie from Germanic mythology and a main character of [[Wikipedia:Der Ring des Nibelungen|Richard Wagner's Ring cycle]] (this parallels the [[Ragnarok Heavy Tank|Ragnarok]] and [[Götterdämmerung Howitzer|Götterdämmerung]], both of which have similarly-themed names).
